American Airlines Group Inc. has become the second major U.S. carrier to pull the grounded Boeing Co. 737 Max from its flight schedule through the busy summer travel season, saying the decision will give passengers more certainty in making vacation plans.
The airline is pulling the Max through Aug. 19, Chief Executive Officer Doug Parker and President Robert Isom told the airline’s employees in a statement on Sunday. Southwest Airlines Co. last week removed the Max from its schedule through Aug. 5. The action will increase daily cancellations for American to 115 from about 90.
